We used an increment of 0.01 and test all possible value and select the one maximizing the statistic.</div><div>For AUC, this is the threshold minimizing the difference between se and sp. </div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>I was also wondering if you are analysing the Evaluation results output by TSS, then in the final model the TSS value is on the Spp.full.total.Score column is that right?</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Depends in you have repetition or not. If you have repetition you first have the full model outputs which does have the TSS value for the final (100% of data) model. </div><div><br></div><div>If you want to compare the different techniques, better to compare the Cross-validation outputs however.</div><div><br></div><div>Wilfried</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><br><blockquote type="cite">
